Question 1157667: The diameter of each wheel of a bicycle is 27 inches. If you are traveling at a speed
of 22 miles per hour on this bicycle, find
a. the angular speed of the wheels in radians per minute, and
b. the number of revolutions per minute that the wheels make. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 22 mph=22*63360=1393920 in/hr
divide by the circumference of the wheel or 27*pi inches and the wheel makes 16433.28 revolutions per hour
and 273.89 revs per minute
This is 1720.90 radians per minute., since there are 2 pi radians per rev.
22 mph=32.27 ft/sec
and can do it that way
